Why pay a lot of money when I can be outside – pulling tires
No need for a gym

Single track in Arendal, beer festival and good food
Went to Arendal together with friends this weekend to try Tungvekteren. Weather forecast was promising and also accurate. So after getting up early on Saturday morning, jumping into the car and heading down to Arendal we started biking at around 12:00.
Someone have had technical problems
Trine on one of the most spectacular spots on the track.
At the hotel, we stayed at Tyholmen, pretty nice!
And it turned out to be a beer festival there the same evening, which we could not refuse to attend.
This one from Nøgne Ø, 16%, coffee among the other ingredients.

Since we deserve it, hamburger and Cola on our way home.
Ruled by the Progress Party – no toll
Even before they are appointed to rule in the new government, the Progress Party (Fremskrittspartiet) seems to have started fulfilling their promises. Picture taken along E18 this weekend.
Freedom of choice
The Husqvarna TE610 is just perfect for me, easy to commute with, fun to ride on gravel roads and also: I got freedom to park wherever I want
Out running with the help of Piper
Me and Piper, our neighbor, or to be more correct – our neighbors dog – went out running two days ago. I got pulled a lot for the first half hour, but the rest we were more or less helping each other. Fun to not be all alone, also since it got pitch-dark at the end.
How can I return a 503 status in apache without invoking external scripts
This blog post How can I return a 503 status in apache without invoking external scripts basically explains it all, but I had to struggle a bit before I completely understood the needed arguments. So now I have the following lines at the end of the httpd.conf file (not for this domain but a server at work 🙂 ).
Redirect 503 /test503
Redirect 404 /test404
Redirect 501 /test501
Redirect 504 /test504
Redirect 505 /test505
Redirect 502 /test502
Redirect 506 /test506
Note that you have to make sure that mod_alias is enabled
Border control
Out running yesterday and with the help of a map and a compass I did do some border control That is, trying to figure out what is our land and what is the neighbors land (say it with the tunes of This Is Your Land in the back of your head). Passing this bog I had to take some pictures, was a pretty nice view.
Afterwards I made a huge fire. Had collected a lot of branches and covered them with plastic the past two months, so they where really dry. One single match made all this.
Spinning to The Strokes
This evening, spinning to The Strokes and their new album Comedown Machine. Must admit that I fast forwarded some of the songs, not the best choice for interval training.
Also upgraded my gym, bought a big clock when in Sweden. It is synced using radio signals from an atomic watch somewhere in Germany. So it adjusts itself, and also switch from summer to winter time and back again, how cool is that?
And a close up shows the unintended romantic trick.
Severe accident caught on camera
My mother in-law operating the wheelbarrow, quite heavy due to soil and stones, emptying it on top of the small hill. While doing it she looses control of it.

From Bjørkelangen with kickbike
My car is at the auto shop today for the periodic technical inspection (EU inspection). So I needed to get back home. Two hours until the bus departed, cannot run since that would kill my legs and not able to bring my bike to Bjørkelangen. Solution – kickbike!!
Took a panorama-picture, but my iPhone did not cope with the sun, but fun anyhow
Nice view just before Fosser
But, that’s nothing, this guy did America coast to coast http://suewidemark.com/delzer.htm
